Class: RemoteUnit

A remote unit can be an RTU, IED, substation control system, control centre, etc. The communication with the remote unit can be through various standard protocols (e.g. IEC 61870, IEC 61850) or non standard protocols (e.g. DNP, RP570, etc.). A remote unit contains remote data points that might be telemetered, collected or calculated. The RemoteUnit class inherits PowerSystemResource. The intention is to allow RemoteUnits to have Measurements. These Measurements can be used to model unit status as operational, out of service, unit failure, etc.
